Summer holidays are almost upon us and parents looking for continued learning opportunities during the break have now a technology alternative to just video games. The UK brand’s latest product Kano Computer Kit Complete is a build-it-yourself laptop and learn-to-code kit that walks users (ages 6 and up) step by step as they learn the components of a computer, as well as challenges/tutorials to learn coding. The kit includes a Raspberry Pi 3, 10.1′” HD screen, speaker, wireless keyboard, sound sensor and battery. My 11 year old son Diego spent a couple of hours enjoying every moment of that time to make his special computer. He was so proud to be able to build his own laptop. 

 

Watch him unboxing the Kano computer Kit from start to finish. 

Here are the educational benefits of getting the kids to build their Kano this Summer:
